My Life, My Pain

By ArtemisUrameshi

Everywhere I go, I see visions of my past before me.

It's not like I ask for them. They just appear.

And I wish they would just leave me be.

From time to time, I've seen them die.
And I'm starting to go crazy.
I wish that these horrific memories would vanish.

Because it's like I'm a child once again.
But I know I'm not. See?
Don't you see what you're doing to me?

You're making this happen and it's starting to kill me.

Why are you doing this? What have I done to make you hate me?

I miss them and yet I don't. I know without them I've made a life for me. But what now?

I guess the only thing to do now is leave my past behind.

I know it won't be easy but it will be worth it.
Because even though they're gone, I'm still alive and that's what they'd want.

So now as I leave this all behind, I know it's for the best.
And I know that this will be our last meeting.
I hope for the best for you and remember this: I love you no matter what.
